Throughout my divorce financial proceedings, Charlotte was understanding, professional and knowledgeably explained my options and best courses of action. I am glad I chose her to represent me and recommend her highly.

A great advocate

I've had straightforward advice from the outset that's helped me recognise my own best interests and reach an equitable outcome. Very accommodating of my neurodivergent communication needs.

Amazing firm, wouldn't hesitate to recommend

I genuinely cannot rate Slater Heelis highly enough and would highly recommend them based on my experience with them. I used Slater Heelis to help with divorce proceeding and the advice they gave and the service provided was second to none. The staff handling my case were caring, understanding, compassionate and extremely professional and approachable. During what was an extremely difficult and harrowing time for me and my children, this made an enormous difference and made what was a very upsetting time that little bit easier. They communicated everything well and always contacted me in person, and their knowledge about proceedings was extensive. I felt heard, supported and in safe hands at all times.

I cannot recommend Slater Heelis highly enough - during what was an extremely difficult and upsetting time for me and my children, all aspects of my divorce were dealt with compassionately and speedily. The advice and support I received was excellent and the staff were wonderful - caring, supportive, understanding and compassionate - which made an enormous difference at such a difficult time.

I would avoid this company, the family department in family court will represent lies and not factual situations when evidence is provided and play very tactical and misleading games. That goes for claire higham and her team Avoid

I’m not usually one to leave reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience with Alexandra Goldrein at Slater Heelis. After a disappointing experience with a previous family law firm, I made the decision to instruct Alexandra to take over my case — and it was absolutely the right choice. Alexandra is an outstanding solicitor: highly competent, knowledgeable, and genuinely supportive throughout. She handled my financial settlement with precision and care, achieving exactly the outcome I had hoped for. Throughout the entire process, I felt reassured and at peace, knowing I was in safe hands. Alexandra — I can’t thank you and your team enough for your professionalism and dedication. You made a stressful situation so much more manageable.

Avoid Avoid Avoid!... yes I googled for the best solicitors I could find after I needed a solicitor i could trust while divorcing my now ex wife! Who comes to my rescue... Aaron Williams, the only person I know that's lies more than my beloved ex... I've had to beg him to reply to emails.. phone calls... whatsapp messages, the man lied to me regarding sending documents to the court... which delayed my life!... yes I then reached out to him one last time copying several of the slaterheelis partners... who comes to my rescue... Mark Heptinstall, Aaron's leader.... as important as you think your life is... never ever think this guy is in your corner!... after admitting there was an internal investigation on Aaron which he clearly told me Aaron was at fault and had not fully given me full important information, and lied about sending the consent order to the court... he was worse to contact, always someone else is more important..because of this key dates were missed..which led to an ugly confrontation with my ex... he then gives me a large bill to pay for ASAP... but no explanation as to what it was for.... only when I confronted him he told me he would do no more work until it was paid...he states i refused to pay, when in actual fact I did not know what I was paying for!...no itemised bill at this point!...(just another lie)... oh, and his fee was over £100 more than Aaron’s, yes he back tracked on the fee, but only after i questioned this. I'm now back on medication for depression, this is nothing to do with my cheating ex that took me for a considerable amount of money... but these two individuals that clearly are the modern day dickturpins.... save yourself the same stress i unfortunately endured and avoid. I've explained to Mark Heptinstall I was to go through the complaints procedure with Slater Heelis then the ombudsman, his reply was i can do as i like...now that comment hurt!!....seems he's a man can clearly sleep well at night.... and to finish the review.... i ended up finishing my case on my own contacting my ex's solicitor... it took one day!... for any other Slaterheelis partners that may care..... I'm happy to forward all emails and messages!

Kimberley

I cannot thank Alex Barley enough for his incredible support with the clinical negligence claim following the tragic passing of my wife. My wife was incorrectly administered a Grade 4 (major harm) dose of Alemtuzumab instead of her prescribed medication, and sadly passed away seven months later. Throughout this incredibly painful and complex process, Alex was exceptionally professional, empathetic, and kept me informed every step of the way. Thanks to his dedication and hard work, we achieved a satisfactory result. I highly recommend Alex and the services of Slater Heelis during such difficult times.

He was a great solicitor and made the whole process much easier and less stressful. I’m very grateful for all his help and would definitely recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable and professional solicitor.
